This example demonstrates spline and linear surface interpolation, and discrete and continuous coloring for the <a href="ContourLayer.htm">ContourLayer</a>.<br><br>
The input to the contour layer are the z values at certain (x, y) points. To draw the contour and to color the layer, it is necessarily to know the z values at all pixels in the xy plane. ChartDirector uses surface interpolation to compute the z values at all pixels from the given data points. Two types of interpolation - spline and linear - are supported. They can be configured using <a href="ContourLayer.setSmoothInterpolation.htm">ContourLayer.setSmoothInterpolation</a>.<br><br>
The coloring of the contour layer can be discrete or continuous, configurable using <a href="ColorAxis.setColorGradient.htm">ColorAxis.setColorGradient</a> or <a href="ColorAxis.setColorScale.htm">ColorAxis.setColorScale</a>.
